Valencia is a gastronomic paradise for lovers of fruits and vegetables, wine, meat, rice and seafood. And, most pleasantly, the prices in Valencia restaurants, as well as in numerous cafes, orchaterias, taverns and bars are quite affordable.
Thus, using the "Menu of the Day" you can get an appetizer, main course, dessert and a drink for 8-9 EUR in a cafe or for 16-17 EUR in a good restaurant. Dinner will cost 14-37 EUR. By the way, in June and November 50 best restaurants in Valencia organize restaurant weeks, during which they present their best dishes at reduced prices (lunch - about 20 EUR, dinner - about 30 EUR).
For the exact date of the event and a list of restaurants, please visit the official website of the Valencia Cuina Oberta Restaurant Club.
Delicious paella is prepared not only in central restaurants, but also in simple street cafes in Valencia (price is the only difference). For example, El Cafe Del Mar (Plz. Lope de Vega, 5) or the popular Valencia restaurant Dos Aigues (there is a menu in Russian).
We also recommend visiting such inexpensive restaurants in Valencia as La Riua, where they cook as many as 20 kinds of paella, and the oldest restaurant on the city's waterfront - La Pepica. In the latter, Spanish kings, Ernest Hemingway and other celebrities have tasted paella, whose photos the owner has carefully hung on the wall.
According to reviews, NECO restaurants are very popular in Valencia. They offer Mediterranean cuisine and practice Buffet Libre format (buffet with unlimited number of approaches). On weekdays the cost of a trip to such an institution will be 10 EUR, on weekends - 13 EUR.
And, of course, a review of the best cafes in Valencia would be incomplete without orchaterias such as Santa Catalina and El Siglo.
We advise you to get acquainted with Spanish fast food as well. For example, the popular 100 Montaditos at Plaza de la Reina, 16 - here you can order the best local sandwiches, salads, fries, desserts and other delicious things. By the way, all dishes and drinks on Wednesdays and Sundays in 100 Montaditos are sold at a special price of 1 EUR.
